The idea behind the covers was that each one had a letter and with the complete set they spelled "rhythm & soul". Not a good idea as they are the most boring covers ever used for an lp. Why they didn't use some foto of the artist is interest the buyers I can't understand.
Thank you for the link to the original covers which are alot better.

Bought them in Belgium at the time. They came under the Blues Spectrum label and had a photo of the artist on the cover. The music was on the whole rather disappointing (the PeeWee Crayton was probably one of the better ones). At the time there weren't that many vintage RnB albums available. The advantage of this series was that the albums were cheap and easily available (i remember buying the Joe Liggins, Johnny Otis and Louis Jordan in the local supermarket) Then i discovered the real thing with the Route66, Saxophonograph, Jukebox Lil' etc. reissues and that's another story
Your blog brings back a lot of happy musical memories. Cheers.

Yes, yes: not great music overall, but some is good. There is a 5 cd's bootleg compilation (Laserlight label*) with some tracks from all 13 lp's, but unfortunately are mastered from lp's and range from terrible to good sound.

The most interesting for me is Rev. Gatemouth Moore, because is a very good album and their recordings are rare, apart of his 40's-50's recordings for Savoy and King

Cheers.
